Boot disk0
Good Morning,

I cloned a SunBlade Solaris 9 machine and have started it up, but it only comes up to the
Code:
ok>

prompt. I can
Code:
boot disk0

and it starts up as I expect into the login screen. How can I make this happen automatically like on the other machine?

At the ok prompt type:
Code:
printenv

and check the values of autoboot?, boot-command, boot-file and boot-device. The first and second should be true and boot respectively. You may need to change the fourth one to disk0 with the command:
Code:
setenv boot-device disk0

You may need to issue the following command to make it permanent:
Code:
reset-all

autoboot  false  true
 boot-command  boot  boot
